Ghazal
In your absence, no pain. And wine? None.
And an answer to my longing, again none.
Once in a while, do pay attention to it for Other than your heart, a better book? None.
Death, why did you come again today? For on her secret face, a veil today? None!
They keep counting their good deeds on their hands, Those whose account of oppression there’s none
Translated, approximately, from the Hindustani of Jagjit Singh's "Tum NahiN, Gham NahiN"
